I picked up a nice little 104 a couple of months ago but I'm just not seeing much in the way of implements available in my area (SW Washington State)

I keep a close eye on CL and EPay but most seem to be located starting in the Mid West and points East. The closest Cub dealership is about 50 mi away and when I rang them my asking about older model parts and such was met with a long pause and . . ."umm yeah, we don't deal too much with the older stuff."

I've checked with a couple of the folks who have pretty extensive parts yards for GTs (Seattle and Salem) and while they have a few Cubs, there just doesn't seem to be much in the way of implements.

Being a metal worker, I plan on fabbing up a lot of what I need but seeing 150.00 front blades and blowers for $200.00 or less sure makes a guy look at what it costs for time and materials to reinvent the wheel.

Being so new to all of this I'm not sure if I'm just not looking in the right places or is there a shortage of this kind of stuff on the Left Coast?

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
